Hello 2766R!
I remember owning a Corgi or Dinky toy model of a purple Europa at around that time! (it's strange how toys like that can make such a lasting impression)

It was a Matchbox Europa S2 that first sparked my desire for a Europa, back when I was six years old. I held on to that spark until 2010 when I bought my real Europa.

OAH764M a Norfolk '73-74 registration plate.
I wonder where it is now.
The previous Roman Purple car is not as bad a colour as I thought in 1978 when I bought my first one.

Trevor,
Matchbox! that may have been the same manufacturer, although I can't be certain - but the car, that was 100% a Lotus Europa!
I also had a gold Marcos (concept?) car along with a few others :)
